Welcome to the KOPY program, the Date Copier. This small documentation of the program is designed to help you use KOPY.

KOPY is a program that helps a programmer, a user, and even a heavy userkeeping backup copies of his/her work. It is designed to work like itshomonym COPY but it is different in that it will compare the date of bothsource and destination (if any) files and copy the latest one onto theearliest one.

KOPY accepts wildcards such as '*' and '?' and all valid drives andsubdirectories. KOPY cuts the mis-spelling of its name by requiring the useof 'TO' between the source and the destination paths. As an example, copyingall *.DOC files from A:\MYDIR\ to B:\BACKUP\ would look like: KOPY A:\MYDIR\*.DOC TO B:\BACKUP\

The new KOPY allows one to copy the files to a non-existant subdirectory andKOPY will create one. The new KOPY also features enhanced error checking andreporting that somehow lacked in earlier versions.
